Last 2 days Secunia Security is alarming that Firefox 3.5.4 is not patched and is exposing my PC to security treat. I followed the recommended action and downloaded again (2 days in a row) the new edition of Firefox. After the new scan Secunia still shows flows in Firefox. Does any body have advice for this problem?

I am having the same problem. And i've tried at least 5 times and secunia still says it is insecure. Could someone please help figure out why this problem is occurring? I've not have a problem upgrading Firefox before.

This thread tells you how to update Firefox from within the open browser , I don't know what methods you are/have been using .

I solved the problem at the end by downloading the new Firefox 6 Beta. with the previous version - Firefox 3.5.4 I presume there is bug problem which is not allowing to patch the browser. I read in PC Magazine about this issue. So, go at Mozilla place and get the Beta it is working perfect.

Don't forget your add-ons. No-scripts & cookie controls will interfere with down loads and should be disabled when updating firefox and sometimes other programs. You can use the "temporarily allow this page" from customize option and placing it on your menu or toolbar.
